CCR# 46439 was created in September 2021 to reflect the addition of $200,000 to this contract.  Some of these funds are provided through the Cost Savings fund, $100,000 to be precise, and will be used to refurbish the Twisp Power and McDaniel's drum screens facilities west of Naches and west of Twisp, WA respectively.  These upgrades will include screen cloth replacement, minor fabrication to assure drum frame strength, supply fish screen mechanical parts like gear boxes and motors, basic hardware and other materials.  Approximately $25,000 will go toward final fabrication and construction actions hat will finish he construction of nine drum screens primarily built under contract #74314 REL 99.  These screens are to be used at screen facilities for which BPA is responsible in the future.  They will allow for quick replacement at certain sites assuring minimal delays in water conveyance and more importantly, fish life protection.  The other approximately $75,000 will be spent on cost share assistance with larger fish screening projects consistent with the guidance of this contract, purchase of pump screens, purchase of materials to build new fish screens, or research and development of fish screening technologies (or some combination).  These actions are all consistent with past contract spending.
